Plugin file detected as malware

Hi @pipetko

does your Malware scanner add any details? That file has nothing strange.

I suggest you:

• Be sure you have the last version 1.9.5.5
• If it was an old version, check again with the malware scanner
• Copy the content of the file fdp-admin.php that you find on the official WordPress repository: https://plugins.svn.ww.wp.xz.cn/freesoul-deactivate-plugins/tags/1.9.5.5/admin/fdp-admin.php
• Copy the content of the file fdp-admin.php that triggered the warning
• Compare the two files, for example with this tool: https://text-compare.com/

If the files are exactly the same, I don’t see any reason why the scanner says it contains a malware. If they are different, you may have a malware that has nothing to do with FDP that wrote inside that file.

I hope it helps

Have a great day!

Hi @pipetko

You can read here why you had the warning about the malware: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/possible-false-positive-freesoul-deactivate-plugins/#post-16784504

The authors of Anti-Malware Security and Brute-Force Firewall have now whitelisted the functionality of FDP that was causing the warning.

Have a great day!
